PROCEEDINGS FOR 1916 III 
tion which was given the Society by the management of the Chateau 
rendered the meeting thoroughly enjoyable. We have been able to 
make like arrangements for this year’s meeting. We have not trans- 
acted as much business during this year as usual, owing to the contin- 
uance of the war, which absorbs so much of our energy and interest. 
I.—PROCEEDINGS AND TRANSACTIONS OF THE SOCIETY 
The usual four quarterlies of Volume IX have been distributed 
during the year and a bound copy of the volume is laid upon the table 
for inspection. The issue will soon be ready for distribution. 
The volume consists this year of 1,306 pages, an increase of 149 
pages over last year’s, with many illustrations. The number of re- 
prints supplied gratuitously to authors this year was 6,900. The 
reports of twenty Associated Societies appear in the printed Pro- 
ceedings. 
The agenda this year shows about the same number of papers as 
last year, implying a continuance of the interest of the Fellows in the 
work of the Society. 
I].—ELECTION OF NEW MEMBERS
